when solitude is required...

so a was told i needed a title for this image (thankyou mark) and i have fumbled around for some time searching for one, only to come up with the one most heart felt to me…
this image was taken near a house i used to live in…
this place way my favorite place to be alone i used to find myself wandering through the bush and way down at the bottom of the hill im the middle of victorian native bushland there stood an old pine tree that didnt quite fit… as it turned out this tree became quite known to me i used to find myself here often…
it was
“my place”
somewhere to be alone and just simply be….

shot using grandfathers old minolta and 50mm lens (which i love)

if you have enjoyed this image perhaps also have a look at

    Divine, another magical image….....I can relate to this so much as I too had an old pine tree on our property as a teenager and I would go and sit under it to just be and always felt so much lighter for doing so, I even made a little seat out of flat stones. I’ll never forget that, thanks for the wonderful reminder…....Love this…....

  • caradione replied

    thanks again tracey….
    your welcome for the reminder… lol if only everyone had a pine tree of their own, the world would possibly be a much quieter place…

    Two features well deserved. On solitude. “Who among us can say, truly, he knew his brother”

  • caradione replied

    thanks so much… and on that note, we only ever see what people around us want us to see and not a whole lot more… it is only when we believe no one is watching that we show our true self.
